That Korean TV show (미녀들의 수다) is a freaking joke this week.
The question:
한국 사람에게 배우고 싶은 에티켓?
What etiquette do you want to learn from Koreans?
Fire away with suggestions. |

How to politely tell someone to bugger off and stop staring and peeking into one's shopping bags. |

This would be the show with the compliant foreign babes who speak Korean and thus probably already know all the "Korean etiquette" they ever wanted to, yes? But of course they'll pretend to be stupid and ask in Korean anyway, in front of a Korean audience that's not learning anything new.
Korea of course wouldn't sit still for a programme featuring a bunch of hot waegook men mixing it up with some fine local babes, so that idea's out. But why not have shows produced in Australia, the U.S. or Canada where every week you get a group of single Korean (girl) hotties, and the hosts ask them what they love most about Australian/American/Canadian men, culture, men, society, men, food, and men? |

I'd check that out!  |

Why not? First, western countries are too politically correct to air this. And groups such as the Asian Anti Defamation League, The Korean American Association for Eqaulity, the Korean Grocers Association, et al.. would scream bloody murder. |

Agreed. Plus -- and to their credit -- the Korean women themselves asked to appear on this hypothetical show, even the F.O.B.-est of them, would probably consider it tactless and demeaning and thus refuse. So my question is, whuzzup with the 미녀들?

| This program only serves to highlight the chronic insecurity of Koreans and Korean males in particular. I would have liked to have been a fly on the wall in the production meeting of the TV channel who thought this up. "Let's do a program where foreigners talk about Korea and living in Korea. And do sexy dances and stuff with Koreans. But lets make all the foreigners hot women. No men." You get the idea. |

That is an idiotic show. I was sitting with my Korean gf yesterday flipping through the channels and stopped there for a minute. I commented on how stupid it was. Ironically enough, it is produced by the media company that she works for as a journalist. I can't tell you how many stories she has told me about the sexist crap that happens in that company. |

| Dissapointing thing is that 99% of Koreans swallow the Krepp they see on the Korea propoganda machine. |

They would say "We love everything about America (but do not care about canada or australia)" |

I have a better programme idea. "Foreign bachelor".
You could have a selection of Korean women to marry a wayguk guy. At stake would be just an average westerner, but with a palatial house/swimming pool, a maid, ferrari etc. Broadcast that to Korea and the country would suddenly be left with no women overnight. |
